Review Quotes:
"The story reinforces that his being overactive and impulsive is not intentional and does not make him bad. The young narrator eventually internalizes his parents' focus on his accomplishments, rather than his challenges, and he wonders what positive things he will do tomorrow. . . . A must-have for young readers with any type of behavior difficulty and their caregivers."--starred, School Library Journal
